the problem is that they only put 4 threads in the head, they changed it in 03 or 04 to 10 threads. My lightning did the same thing, it sounds sooooooooo bad when it happens.

1979 ford bronco (I miss my old one so much)

1983 mustang gt t-top

1993 mustang gt (which I own)

i am pretty sure have one ( the hard line) for a stock 8.8.... 10 bucks....if its still needed

my best time was 11.96 at 117 with a 1.7 60' i got to work out some bugs but im very pleased with the car as of yet

 

the bike with me on it went porly but with a buddie kev on it and some practice it got a 10.4x out of it it needs lowered and i need more time at the strip ill be eating zx-12s all day long then

 

 

We will see about you eating zx12's all day long...

in the primer vert. foxbody i ran 11.98 at 115, my dad who is 120lbs lighter went 11.95 at 116. I went 10.92 at 134 on my zx-12r, my buddy kevin ran a 10.37 at 137 on the same bike....damn my fat ass..lol.

I wanted to upgrade to a 10.5" clutch and/or alum. flywheel. Jegs wanted my left arm for the flywheel, so I tried to just get a rebalence on a steel 5.0 flywheel. Well, Fast didn't have the equipment set up at the time to do a rebalence and it would cost me more to get it set up to do so. So i had planned on ordering a 10" clutch (which wouldn't of been in till tomorrow) and just using what I had. I complained about this to Eric (nther91), he called IPS for me and set up a great deal through Greg. So now i have an alum. flywheel and the 10.5" clutch as i wanted and got it sooner than I had hoped... 1 day turn around. Thanks again IPS and Greg. Hopefully see you all at norwalk.

If you want to come linn....then be there at noon....they are running tech though.

can you run it out to the exhaust like the breathers from a drag car to pull the vaccum out of the engine, just do it on a smaller scale with a small piece of tubbing ran down to the exhaust off your header? tap it in there and who cares if it puffs a little oil out, just an idea...don't know if you can use it or not. Or if you do use a k&n style breather wrap it with a rag zip tied around the breather to not let the oil come out onto the engine. Just change the rag every so often

I think I will bring the 12 up...maybe the vert if the 347 is back together

more shots of the carnage....

Engine should be apart saturday to show the final results of damage

pics sent of the CRX

the cougar just keeps following me with its eyes

Its never out cause there is no engine in it....and the purple monster just found its way back onto the street.

Sounds like a beast......now just to get it to idle...

I got your call today Adam.....i am thinking about jb welding the block together just to come out and race you

damn broken driveshafts, do it to ya every time

i will give you a 87 crx, with a blown engine....kinda rough, for it

Thats great.

September actually helps my cause...i think i am gonna to try and get Jason to set up my gift registry at Jegs...hehehe. Well Clark, with all the money you have going into the most expensive stratus engine swap into a neon...I doubted you would get the turbo car done.

 

 

Oh and Greg I will blame this all on your cheap wood desk...lol

Link to a photo of where the block is split

 

Oh and Clark, I will have a new engine before that Turbo Neon gets done.

I still have a fast bike.....tune that damn car...lol I will dig race the bike. Thanks for the support. I will hopefully be running a big N/A motor here before to long. Ok I am sure I will spray this one too, I can't lie about that.

Just to let all who wants to know or even cares, while at fun ford weekend I offically split the block in half. It is visible right next to the dizzy, under the water neck. There is an 8th inch crack running vertical the whole visible area of the block. I guess around 600 or so crank horsepower will do that to a stock block. New setup is in the works and I will post picks of the carnage when the old engine comes out.

I have seen at shott's

I will be running true street and maybe bracket up there at fun ford

fun ford here....good event...good track
